The Surprisingly Great D&D Movie Is Now Streaming

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves has landed on Paramount+. The fantasy action film--starring Chris Pine, Michelle Rodriguez, and Regé-Jean Page--debuted in theaters March 31, meaning it hit streaming after a 45-day window.

The Paramount+ Twitter account teased the movie's arrival yesterday with "Let the campaign commence." Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves has a positive 72 metascore based on 57 reviews on GameSpot sister site Metacritic.

In March, directors Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley talked to GameSpot about the difficulties of explaining D&D to viewers with no background in the tabletop game. "The bigger challenge was to give something to the people who have absolutely nothing to do with Dungeons & Dragons--or know nothing about it--a movie that they will also enjoy. And what I would say is, you know, we were very authentic," Daly said at the time.

Daly, who also wrote Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves with Goldstein, pointed out that all of the monsters and spells within the film "are all part of the lore." The duo have also discussed the surprise cameos in the movie.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves started out theatrically with a worldwide haul of $72 million opening weekend. According to BoxOfficeMojo, the film has now grossed $203.8 million globally.
